A few more tax-euros down the drain.

"FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) -- Germany's ambitious project to collect truck tolls using satellite technology stalled Tuesday when the government announced it would cancel its contract with a consortium of top companies involved in the effort because the project had had fallen months behind schedule and cost millions in lost revenue."

It's cancelled the contract and suing the satellite toll company for loss of revenue due not meeting the target dates. (August 2003, I think)

The toll will still go ahead with a different supplier and obviously a lot late than scheduled.
